Acceleration is the time rate of change of velocity. If velocity is constant, then. acceleration is zero. Note: 100 km per h for 10 seconds is a constant speed, but not necessarily a constant. velocity, since we're told nothing about the direction.
a=dv/dt. By definition, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. In mathematical notation, it is given as the formula stated above. Two special cases: 1. When acceleration is constant: The rate of change is a constant. Therefore, it can be calculated by: a=(vf - vi) / t where a is acceleration vf is final velocity vi is initial velocity and t is time taken 2. When velocity is constant: Velocity is not changing. The rate of change of velocity is zero.
